Venue Route

1. From Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG)

To Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC)

  • Metro (recommended) – Take Metro Line 2 (direction to Guanglan Road) and get off at Longyang Road Station. Then transfer to Metro Line 7 (direction to Huamu Road) for one stop to Huamu Road Station. Exit via Gate 2 – the expo centre is right there.
    Travel time: ~50 min, cost: ~¥6

  • Taxi – Direct taxi ride takes about 35–40 minutes (depending on traffic), cost ~¥80–100.

  • Airport Shuttle Bus – Bus Line 5 to Shanghai Railway Station, then transfer to metro/taxi. Not recommended as it takes longer.

To Shanghai International Sourcing Center

  • Metro – Take Line 2 to Loushanguan Road Station (about 1 hour). Then take a taxi (10 min, ~¥15) or walk ~1.5 km.
    Alternatively, from PVG take Line 2 to People’s Square, transfer to Line 1 to Ningbo Road, then transfer to Line 13 to Daduhui Road – but this is cumbersome.
    Better option: Take Metro Line 2 to Weining Road, then taxi (15 min, ~¥20) to the center.

  • Taxi – Direct taxi from PVG to the Sourcing Center costs ~¥160–200 and takes about 50–70 minutes.



2. From Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport (SHA)

To Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC)

  • Metro – Take Line 2 (direction to Guanglan Road) directly to Longyang Road Station (no transfer). Then transfer to Line 7 (one stop to Huamu Road). Total about 55–60 minutes, cost ~¥6–7.

  • Taxi – ~45–60 minutes, cost ~¥100–130.

To Shanghai International Sourcing Center

  • Metro – Take Line 2 to Loushanguan Road Station (4 stops, ~15 min). Then take a short taxi ride (10 min, ~¥15) or walk 1.2 km south.
    Or take Line 10 from SHA to Yili Road, then transfer to bus 757 or taxi – but Line 2 + taxi is simplest.

  • Taxi – Direct taxi takes about 20–30 minutes (traffic dependent), cost ~¥50–70.

General Tips

  • Metro is cheap and reliable. Avoid peak hours (7:30–9:00 AM, 5:00–7:00 PM).

  • Taxis are easy to find at official ranks. Have your destination written in Chinese:

    • SNIEC: 上海新国际博览中心

    • Sourcing Center: 上海跨国采购中心 (address: 光复西路2739号)

  • Ride-hailing apps like Didi (English version available) can also be used.
